Triumph Recalls Motorcycles

Triumph Motorcycles America, LLD has recalled certain model year 2012-2013 Speed Triple ABS motorcycles manufactured June 2012, through January 2013. The transmission on some motorcycles may have been built with an incorrect detent spring. As a result of the incorrect spring, the transmission may inadvertently shift out of gear while the motorcycle is moving, increasing the risk of a crash.

Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will install a revised detent spring, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin this month. Owners may contact Triumph at 1-678-854-2010 for more information. Customers may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); or go to www.safercar.gov.
